Virtual Markings in Welding Systems

2. The system of claim 1, wherein the first or second indication comprises the tool input from the welding tool.

3. The system of claim 1, wherein the machine readable instructions, when executed, further cause the processing circuitry to display, in the rendering, on the display screen, dimensions overlaid on the workpiece to aid in creating the marking.

4. The system of claim 1, wherein the marking property comprises a color, a thickness, a transparency, a filling, or a style.

5. The system of claim 4, wherein the marking information comprises a length of the marking, a curvature of the marking, a welding order associated with the marking, a weld setting associated with the marking, or a welding technique parameter associated with the marking.

6. The system of claim 1, wherein the marking comprises a first marking, and wherein the machine readable instructions, when executed, further cause the processing circuitry to: in response to the second indication indicating that the first marking should be activated, deactivate and deemphasize a second marking, the second marking having previously been activated and emphasized.

7. The system of claim 1, further comprising a welding helmet comprising the sensor and the display screen, the sensor comprising a camera sensor, ultrasonic sensor, radio frequency sensor, magnetic sensor, audio sensor, or millimeter wave sensor.

8. The system of claim 1, wherein the tool input is sent from the welding tool in response to actuation of a trigger of the welding tool during a markup mode when a welding-type operation is disabled, or in response to actuation of a non-trigger input of the welding tool.

10. The method of claim 9, wherein the first or second indication comprises the tool input from the welding tool.

11. The method of claim 9, further comprising displaying, in the rendering, on the display screen, dimensions overlaid on the workpiece to aid in creating the marking.

12. The method of claim 9, wherein the marking property comprises a color, a thickness, a filling, a transparency, or a style.

13. The method of claim 9, wherein the marking information comprises a length of the marking, a curvature of the marking, a welding order associated with the marking, a weld setting associated with the marking, or a welding technique parameter associated with the marking.

14. The method of claim 9, wherein the marking comprises a first marking, the method further comprising: in response to the second indication indicating that the first marking should be activated, deactivating and deemphasizing a second marking, the second marking having previously been activated and emphasized.

15. The method of claim 9, wherein the sensor and display screen are part of a welding helmet, the sensor comprising a camera sensor, ultrasonic sensor, radio frequency sensor, magnetic sensor, audio sensor, or millimeter wave sensor.

16. The method of claim 10, wherein the tool input is sent from the welding tool in response to actuation of a trigger of the welding tool during a markup mode when a welding-type operation is disabled, or in response to actuation of a non-trigger input of the welding tool.
